Gadget Model Bulletin: Taipei Game Show : New Lara Croft

It has been a while since our last Gadget Photo model Bulletin. There was anyway gadget model overload during the CES 2006 on I4U News. Now more than a month after CES it is time to take a look at the models in the technology business again. This week the Taipei Game Show takes place and the Taiwanese press is celebrating their booth babes with a dedicated site and lots of galleries. Taiwanese site Gamer has the following reports and galleries up: report 1, gallery 1. You can even vote for your favorite Taipei Game Show hostess at site dubbed Show Girls. The site features individual profiles of models working at the TGS 2006.

The other big news this week was the announcement of the new Lara Croft spokes model by Eidos. Her name is Karima Adebibe (see photo below). She is an unknown 20 year old and was picked in the UK under 1000s of candidates. As one of the Eidos representative is saying: “Karima has all the assets needed to accurately portray the world's favorite female action hero”. I agree a 100%.

Karima Adebibe will star in Lara Croft commercials feature in the new version:  Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend (site). The new Tomb Raider game will launch in April (pre-order here). See more photos of Karima Adebibe as Lara Croft on Yahoo!
